Process

Typical Process Flow

A representative sequence. Final stage design depends on the products, coating system, and facility constraints.

  1. Load
  2. Pretreatment
  3. Dry-Off
  4. Powder Application
  5. Cure
  6. Cool
  7. Unload

Components

System Components

Heavy-part handling

Overhead or floor conveying sized for formwork, frames, guardrail sections and barrier panels.

Powder application and recovery

Pass-through booths with cartridge or cyclone recovery for construction-metal powders.

Waterborne option

Waterborne spray for aluminum climbing formwork where a liquid coat is specified instead of powder.

Curing

Tunnel or powder curing ovens with dwell set to metal thickness and powder cure window.

Configuration

Configuration Options

  • Lines built around large fabricated construction parts, not small hangers only
  • Formwork, climbing-frame mesh, zinc-steel guardrail, fencing and noise-barrier families
  • Powder or waterborne process selected with the coating specification
  • Unloading devices and booth details covered by group patents

Applications

Typical Applications

  • Aluminum formwork
  • Climbing frames and mesh
  • Zinc-steel guardrails and protective fencing
  • Highway noise barriers
  • Aluminum panels used on buildings

FAQ

Construction Metal Powder Lines FAQ

Answers to the questions we are asked most often when a finishing line is being planned.

Can one line run formwork and guardrail?

Sometimes, if the envelope, hangers and powder are compatible. Mixed construction parts are reviewed as a product family before the conveyor and booth opening are frozen.

Construction metal is the strongest product group XFS Equipment builds: large aluminum and steel parts used on building sites, coated on conveyorized powder or waterborne lines manufactured in our factory.
